Scripture Applied

By: Church & Family Life
  • Summary

  • How should we dress as Christians? What’s our duty with the tithe? And how do we tame our unruly tongues?

    These are just three of many practical issues Scott Brown will address in his new podcast, Scripture Applied.

    Approximately five minutes in length, these short takes are designed to bring God’s Word to bear on a variety of important subjects. Drawing from sound exposition, Scott will give key scriptural insights designed to convict, instruct, and equip believers in their walk (2 Tim. 3:16-17).

    Scripture Applied is based on the truth that God’s Word is sure and sufficient (Ps. 119:89; 2 Tim. 3:16-17), having transforming power to save and guide us with the Holy Spirit’s aid (Heb. 4:12; Ps. 119:105; 1 Cor. 2:14). As such, we must embrace this life-nourishing testimony to joyfully thrive with strength and wisdom (Deut. 8:3; Ps. 19:7-11).

    The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul;
    The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple;
    The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart;
    The commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes;
    The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever;
    The judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.
    More to be desired are they than gold,
    Yea, than much fine gold;
    Sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
    Moreover by them Your servant is warned,
    And in keeping them there is great reward. (Ps.19:7-11)

  • Overcoming Fear - Four Reasons to Not Be Ashamed of the Gospel
    Nov 21 2024

    Every Christian’s had moments where they were ashamed to speak the truth of the gospel. So how can we be delivered from this fear? In Romans 1:16-17, the Apostle Paul gives four words to describe why he’s not ashamed of the gospel: power, salvation, faith, and righteousness. First, the gospel has power—the power of God, not man. Second, it brings salvation—by God’s power, it saves us from the penalty of sin and God’s just wrath. Third, it comes by faith to everyone who believes. And, fourth, it comes by Christ’s righteousness. These four words should embolden us to share the good news of Jesus Christ to others.

  • The Greatest Manifestation of God’s Mercy
    Nov 14 2024

    The doctrine of election is the greatest manifestation of the mercy of God towards sinners. He saves sinners who do not deserve it. It is God who appoints to salvation; man cannot do it on his own. So what should we say about all of this? First, rejoice in your dependence. We could not have turned our own hearts around, but He did, and this should cause us to adore Him. Second, rest in God’s grace. No one deserves to be saved. Yet in God’s mercy, He forgives. What a blessing it is that He elects and changes our heart!

    Scripture references: Romans 8:28-29, 33

  • A Hated Doctrine in Romans 9
    Nov 7 2024

    Election is one of the most hated doctrines of the Bible, because it’s an assault on man-centeredness. Because of this, many find Romans 9 disturbing. In this chapter, the Apostle Paul explains that election is a vindication of the justice of God, yet it’s also an exaltation of His grace in salvation. As we grapple with this text, the question we must ask is this: Would you rather have God who chooses you based on your righteousness or a God who chooses you in spite of your righteousness? The reality is any material advantages you have can’t save you, but Jesus Christ in His mercy is the only way to be rescued from your law-keeping—as you come to Him by faith alone.
